Auto Eater Mod

This is a simple client mod to stop worrying about eating all the time, selecting the food and eating. It detects whenever the foodbar falls below a certain threshold, selects food in your hotbar, and starts eating, and selects back the slot you had. You can add items to a blacklist to prevent eating unwanted items.

Features

  • Killswitch with hotkey:

    Lets you turn Auto Eater on or off instantly by pressing , without opening the config screen. Useful when you want full manual control for combat, building, or other precise actions.

  • Customizable Food Blacklist:

    Prevents specific foods from being eaten automatically. This is useful for rare, valuable, or dangerous foods like golden apples or suspicious stew.

  • Auto hunger threshold:

    The threshold can automatically adapt to your food supply instead of using one fixed hunger value. In Auto (min) it prefers the least nutritious available food, and in Auto (max) it prefers the most nutritious food.

  • Return to previous selected slot when done:

    After auto-eating, the mod switches you back to the hotbar slot you were using before it started.

  • Auto Eating cancelation with cooldown:

    Auto-eating can be canceled by scrolling away or by pressing left click, and the mod then stays inactive for a configurable amount of time. Getting hit also cancels the mod for safety.

  • Include Inventory:

    If no food is available in the hotbar, auto-eater will search through your inventory and pull out food to your last hotbar slot, and auto-eat it.

Config

Configurations are available through the mod menu.

Server Warning

Some servers use plugins that turn your inventory into a UI (for example shops, menus, or other item-based interfaces).
In those cases, Auto-Eater can mistakenly try to eat UI items or interfere with menu interactions.
On large servers that use that tipe of interfaces (e.g. Hypixel), it is recommended to turn Auto-Eaeter off while using those plugin/UIs.
